from The SEND Sisterhood · host The Send Sisterhood

On this penultimate episode Dee and Nat meet up with Andrea H, who worked in the social care sector for over 15 years; a career that was driven by her empathetic nature, understanding and belief that everyone deserves quality care. Within this period, she became a single mum to two, now teenaged queens; and she was also diagnosed with progressive Multiple Sclerosis (MS); an incurable condition that effects the brain and spinal cord. In this episode Andrea discusses the changes from being a able bodied  person to having to adapt to not only being diagnosed, but also being an active and present parent for both her girls. For further information about MS check out the MS Society at: https://www.mssociety.org.uk/Updates on future episodes check us out: @thesendsisterhood; please like, comment, share, leave a review and rate each episode on socials and podcast listening platforms. If you have any comments, feedback or would like to participate on a future episode of the SEND Sisterhood write to:  [email protected] Music by SK @GMGOmusicDisclaimer: We are not speaking as professionals; for all parents or all persons with disabilities - this podcast is simply based our own lived experiences and perspective.
